New Thought Common Sense
"Evolution is better than Revolution. New Thought Library's New Thought Archives encompass a full range of New Thought media from Abrahamic to Vedic reflecting the ongoing evolution of human thought. New Thought's unique inclusion of science, art and philosophy contrasts with 'old thought' Religion. Today's 'New Thought 3.0' teaches personal responsibility, self-development, human rights and compassionate action as essential spiritual paradigms." ~ Avalon de Rossett

Yet common sense tells us that all abnormal and unnatural methods of life followed in the name of religion are of the same school, and that school belongs in the realm of unbalanced minds. God does not want and does not approve of any method of life which upsets His divinely planned order of human existence.
It is just as great a crime to starve, torture and mutilate your own body as that of another. Every organ, impulse, appetite, affection and passion was given you to conserve for the highest purpose. Just as your hands need the ten fingers, and your feet the ten toes, and your face two eyes, and ears, and a nose, and mouth, to be a perfect human body, so you need all your emotions and appetites and desires to be a perfect being. Just as you need to use the organs of your body for noble purposes, and your hands for worthy service, and your feet for willing journeys at the bidding of good, so you need to turn all your impulses to the development of a perfect character. The craze for fasting has become a disease in America among many orders of religious fanatics.
